What's New for 2019?
The 2019 Ford Ranger is an all-new model. Unlike most
midsize trucks on the market, the new Ranger has an EcoBoost
four-cylinder engine that's very efficient. Its standard SYNC system
with voice commands is easy to use, while the optional SYNC 3
infotainment system with an 8-inch touch screen is regarded as one of
the most straightforward and user-friendly systems on the market.
Performance
You'll enjoy driving the 2019 Ford Ranger, which gets
moving seamlessly and continues to accelerate swiftly even at higher
speeds. It comes with a potent, 270-horsepower turbocharged
four-cylinder engine that produces 310 pound-feet of torque. With its
direct-injection system and Auto Start-Stop technology, the Ranger gets a
thrifty 21 mpg in the city and 26 mpg on the highway. It also handles
well, with minimal roll around turns. A standard 10-speed automatic
transmission rattles off shifts with precision, and it finds the right
gear for whatever driving situation you're in. The Ranger has four
selectable settings in its Terrain Management System, including Normal,
Grass, Gravel/Snow, Mud/Ruts, or Sand, for a ride that's tailored to the
road conditions.
Capabilities
Ford has some of the most capable and comfortable pickup
trucks in the industry, and the 2019 Ford Ranger is no exception. Like
most
Ford trucks, the 2019 Ford Ranger can tow and haul more than
most other trucks in its class. It has a 7,500-pound towing capacity
and a payload max of 1,860 pounds. The Ranger also excels off-road.
Two-wheel-drive models have 8.4 inches of ground clearance, while the
four-wheel versions have 8.9. Both versions offer electronically locking
rear differentials, while the front remains open in 4x4s. People in the
Ishpeming and Negaunee areas who like to go off the beaten path will
like the available Off-Road Package, which adds off-road-tuned monotube
shocks, all-terrain tires, and heavy-duty skid plates.
